SPECIAL ORDER WINCHESTER 1886 PISTOLGRIP DELUXE RIFLE WITH 30 INCH LIGHTWEIGHT PART OCTAGON BARREL

Description:
This is one for the advanced collector. Research by Winchester Model 1886 expert John Madl found this to be the only one made with this combination of desirable special order features; 30 inch lightweight half octagon barrel chambered in 38-56 WCF, Double Set trigger, Checkered pistol grip deluxe walnut stocks and 1/2 magazine.
Looking at rarity by the numbers according to The Winchester Handbook by Madis, the Winchester Model 1886 serial numbers went up to 159994.
Of the total 159994 production:

Only 478 were made with longer than standard length barrels.
Only 1,632 were made with part round barrels. (Madl found only 5 made with 30" part round/part octagon barrels in caliber 38-56, no mention of barrel weight.)
Only 477 were made with shorter than standard length magazines.
Only 5,163 were made with Set triggers (No mention of single or double set - Medl found only 1 double set trigger in 38-56)
Only 280 were made with Checkered stocks.
Only 501 were made with Special wood.
Only 796 were made with Pistol grips.

Condition - Shows plenty of use with a repair to the wrist of the stock and other wear and handling marks. The barrel shows about 40% thinning finish with scattered freckles, wear and handling marks. Color case hardened receiver shows perhaps 20% finish with the balance having a mottled brown gray appearance with nickel-like undertones. The set triggers work but the hammer does not seem to have a safe position. While condition is always a factor, special order features are what makes them interesting. Comes with Factory Letter.
